Make time for sleep
Ages 18-64 are recommended to get 7-9 hours of sleep/night
Sleep impacts all aspects of life. Insufficient sleep is related to chronic stress, poor mental health and more sedentary time. For students, less sleep can negatively impact grades and focusing.
Here are some ways to improve your sleep:
-
avoid caffeine, nicotine and alcohol before bed
-
have a consistent sleep schedule
-
practice relaxation and mindfulness techniques
-
exercise regularly (at least 3 hours before sleeping)
